Planning for Our Path to Mastery (continued)

The Luana Sponsor Team met again this past Monday to begin planning the next areas of focus, in addition to the two areas that were previously defined. Upon further discussion the group determined that tackling the original desired outcome of residents talking about spontaneous moments; seeing staff integrating spontaneity into their work; and getting people excited about playing spontaniety at Hale Makua Kahului may be very difficult to get off the ground. If the Sponsor Team members were having a hard time figuring out what this desired outcome means, the staff would have even greater difficulty. 

The group instead decided to focus on a desired outcome that is a bit more tangible and upon implementation would definitely promote variety, spontaneity and teamwork between residents and staff. For Hale Makua Kahului the priority would be to focus on pets and how to bring them into the community and integrate them into the lives of residents and staff. Below are the two priorities, each action plan and the preliminary completion dates.
